In this study, a high-temperature titanium alloy, Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si, was prepared under different HIP temperatures (880–1000℃), and the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were systematically investigated. The results demonstrated that the HIPed alloys were predominantly composed of more than 80 vol.% α phase and a small amount of β phase, and their phase compositions were basically unaffected by the HIP temperatures. Under the typical single-temperature-maintained HIP (STM-HIP) regime, the microstructure of alloy significantly coarsened as the HIP temperature increased, and the alloy strength exhibited an obvious linear negative correlation with the HIP temperature. On the basis of Hall–Petch relation, the prediction model of grain size was established, and the mathematical equation between HIP temperature and grain size (d=M(T_(HIP-N)^(-2))) was deduced. Furthermore, a possible evolution mechanism of microstructure was proposed, which could be divided into the decomposition of initial α′ martensite for as-received powder, formation of the globular α grains in prior particle boundaries (PPBs) region, and precipitation of the platelet α grains in non-PPBs region. For these alloys prepared by the dual-temperature-maintained HIP (DTM-HIP) regime, although their tensile properties were comparable to that of alloy prepared by STM-HIP regime with same high-temperature holding stage, higher proportion of globular α grains occurred due to more recrystallization nucleation during the low-temperature holding stage, which probably provided a solution for improving the dynamic service performance of HIPed alloys.展开更多

文摘Iced transmission line galloping poses a significant threat to the safety and reliability of power systems,leading directly to line tripping,disconnections,and power outages.Existing early warning methods of iced transmission line galloping suffer from issues such as reliance on a single data source,neglect of irregular time series,and lack of attention-based closed-loop feedback,resulting in high rates of missed and false alarms.To address these challenges,we propose an Internet of Things(IoT)empowered early warning method of transmission line galloping that integrates time series data from optical fiber sensing and weather forecast.Initially,the method applies a primary adaptive weighted fusion to the IoT empowered optical fiber real-time sensing data and weather forecast data,followed by a secondary fusion based on a Back Propagation(BP)neural network,and uses the K-medoids algorithm for clustering the fused data.Furthermore,an adaptive irregular time series perception adjustment module is introduced into the traditional Gated Recurrent Unit(GRU)network,and closed-loop feedback based on attentionmechanism is employed to update network parameters through gradient feedback of the loss function,enabling closed-loop training and time series data prediction of the GRU network model.Subsequently,considering various types of prediction data and the duration of icing,an iced transmission line galloping risk coefficient is established,and warnings are categorized based on this coefficient.Finally,using an IoT-driven realistic dataset of iced transmission line galloping,the effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through multi-dimensional simulation scenarios.

文摘Friction stir lap welding of AA2195 Al-Li alloy and Ti alloy was conducted to investigate the formation,microstructure,and mechanical properties of the joints.Results show that under different welding parameters,with the decrease in welding heat input,the weld surface is smoother.The Ti/Al joint interface is flat without obvious Ti and Al mixed structure,and the hook structure is not formed under optimal parameters.Due to the enhanced breaking effect of the stirring head,the hook structural defects and intermetallic compounds are more likely to form at the Ti/Al interface at high rotational speed of 1000 r/min,thereby deteriorating the mechanical properties of joints.Decreasing the heat input is beneficial to hardness enhancement of the aluminum alloy in the weld nugget zone.Under the optimal parameters of rotation speed of 800 r/min and welding speed of 120 mm/min,the maximum tensile shear strength of joint is 289 N/mm.

文摘Global warming impacts plant growth and development,which in turn threatens food security.Plants can clearly respond to warm-temperature(such as by thermomorphogenesis)and high-temperature stresses.At the molecular level,many small molecules play crucial roles in balancing growth and defense,and stable high yields can be achieved by fine-tuning the responses to external stimuli.Therefore,it is essential to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying plant growth in response to heat stress and how plants can adjust their biological processes to survive heat stress conditions.In this review,we summarize the heat-responsive genetic networks in plants and crop plants based on recent studies.We focus on how plants sense the elevated temperatures and initiate the cellular and metabolic responses that allow them to adapt to the adverse growing conditions.We also describe the trade-off between plant growth and responses to heat stress.Specifically,we address the regulatory network of plant responses to heat stress,which will facilitate the discovery of novel thermotolerance genes and provide new opportunities for agricultural applications.

文摘The remarkable ability of titanium alloys to preserve their superior physical and chemical characteristics when subjected to extreme conditions significantly enhances their importance in the aerospace,military,and medical sectors.However,conventional machining of titanium alloys leads to elevated tool wear,development of surface defects,and reduced machining efficiency due to their low heat conductivity,and chemical affinity.These issues can be somewhat counteracted by integrating ultrasonic vibration in the conventional machining of titanium alloys and also enhance sustainability.This review article offers a holistic evaluation of the influence of ultrasonic vibration-assisted milling and turning on cutting forces,temperature,tool wear,and surface integrity,encompassing surface morphology,surface roughness,surface residual stress,surface hardness,and surface tribological properties during titanium alloys machining.Furthermore,it investigates the sustainability aspect that has not been previously examined.Studies on the performance of ultrasonic-assisted cutting revealed several advantages,including decreased cutting forces and cutting temperature,improved tool life,and a better-machined surface during machining.Consequently,the sustainability factor is improved due to minimized energy consumption and residual waste.In conclusion,the key challenges and future prospects in the ultrasonic-assisted cutting of titanium alloys are also discussed.This review article provides beneficial knowledge for manufactur-ers and researchers regarding ultrasonic vibration-assisted cutting of titanium alloy and will play an important role in achieving sustainability in the industry.

文摘Solvent extraction is the main method used to separate and purify rare earth elements.In the process of rare earths extraction,emulsification often generated due to the instability of the aqueous and organic phases or improper operating conditions.Once emulsification occurs,it would not only lead to low rare earths recovery efficiency,small product quantities,high production costs and the losing of extractant and rare earth resources,but also result in serious environmental pollution.Therefore,it is very important to study the micro-mechanisms of emulsification and establish new methods to prevent emulsification at the source.In this paper,possible factors resulting in emulsification,such as the compositions and properties of the organic and aqueous phases,the operating conditions of the rare earths extraction are reviewed.The micro-mechanisms of emulsification are summarized basing on the microscopic structures in the bulk phase,aggregations of the extractants at the organic-aqueous interface,spectral characterizations and computational simulations.On this basis,new formation mechanisms are proposed for emulsification.Preliminary explorations are employed to verify the correctness of these new viewpoints.Finally,future directions for studies of the emulsification micro-mechanism are proposed.This study provides a theoretical basis for further understanding the micro-mechanisms of interfacial instability resulting in emulsification in the process of rare earths extraction.

文摘Poly(butylene adipate-terephthalate)(PBAT),as one of the most common and promising biodegradable plastics,has been widely used in agriculture,packaging,and other industries due to its strong biodegradability properties.It is well known that PBAT suffers a series of natural weathering,mechanical wear,hydrolysis,photochemical transformation,and other abiotic degradation processes before being biodegraded.Therefore,it is particularly important to understand the role of abiotic degradation in the life cycle of PBAT.Since the abiotic degradation of PBAT has not been systematically summarized,this review aims to summarize the mechanisms and main factors of the three major abiotic degradation pathways(hydrolysis,photochemical transformation,and thermochemical degradation)of PBAT.It was found that all of them preferentially destroy the chemical bonds with higher energy(especially C-O and C=O)of PBAT,which eventually leads to the shortening of the polymer chain and then leads to reduction in molecular weight.The main factors affecting these abiotic degradations are closely related to the energy or PBAT structure.These findings provide important theoretical and practical guidance for identifying effective methods for PBAT waste management and proposing advanced schemes to regulate the degradation rate of PBAT.

文摘The performances of magnesium alloys remain insufficient to further enhance the application potential of ultralight magnesium alloys.In this work,a Mg-8Li-3Y-2Zn alloy was prepared through vacuum melting and subsequent heat treatment at 300,450,and 500°C.The material properties of the resulting samples were assessed through microstructural observation,tensile testing,electrical conductivity measurements,and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness(EMI-SE)testing.The influence of the Mg-8Li-3Y-2Zn alloy microstructure on its mechanical and electromagnetic shielding properties in different states was investigated.It was found that the as-cast alloy containsα-Mg,β-Li,Mg_(3)Zn_(3)Y_(2),and Mg_(12)ZnY phases.Following heat treatment at 500℃(HT500),the blockα-Mg phase transformedfine needle-shapes,its tensile strength increased to 263.7 MPa,and its elongation reached 45.3%.The mechanical properties of the alloy were significantly improved by the synergistic effects imparted by the needle-shapedα-Mg phase,solid solution strengthening,and precipitation strengthening.The addition of Y and Zn improved the EMI-SE of Mg-8Li-1Zn alloy,wherein the HT500 sample exhibits the highest SE,maintaining a value of 106.7–76.9 dB in the frequency range of 30–4500 MHz;this performance has rarely been reported for electromagnetically shielded alloys.This effect was mainly attributed to the multiple reflections of electromagnetic waves caused by the severe impedance mismatch of the abundant phase boundaries,which were in turn provided by the dual-phase(α/β)and secondary phases.Furthermore,the presence of nano-precipitation was also believed to enhance the absorption of electromagnetic waves.

文摘Irregular bone scaffolds fabricated using the Voronoi tessellation method resemble the morphology and properties of human cancellous bones.This has become a prominent topic in bone tissue engineering research in recent years.However,studies on the radial-gradient design of irregular bionic scaffolds are limited.Therefore,this study aims to develop a radial-gradient structure similar to that of natural long bones,enhancing the development of bionic bone scaffolds.A novel gradient method was adopted to maintain constant porosity,control the seed site-specific distribution within the irregular porous structure,and vary the strut diameter to generate radial gradients.The irregular scaffolds were compared with four conventional scaffolds(cube,pillar BCC,vintiles,and diamond)in terms of permeability,stress concentration characteristics,and mechanical properties.The results indicate that the radial-gradient irregular porous structure boasts the widest permeability range and superior stress distribution compared to conventional scaffolds.With an elastic modulus ranging from 4.20 GPa to 22.96 GPa and a yield strength between 68.37 MPa and 149.40 MPa,it meets bone implant performance requirements and demonstrates significant application potential.

文摘High-entropy materials possess high hardness and strong wear resistance,yet the key bottleneck for their practical applications is the poor corrosion resistance in harsh environments.In this work,the high-entropy nitride(HEN)coatings of(MoNbTaTiZr)1-x Nx(x=0-0.47)were fabricated using a hybrid di-rect current magnetron sputtering technique.The research focus was dedicated to the effect of nitrogen content on the microstructure,mechanical and electrochemical properties.The results showed that the as-deposited coatings exhibited a typical body-centered cubic(BCC)structure without nitrogen,while the amorphous matrix with face-centered cubic(FCC)nanocrystalline grain was observed at x=0.17.Further increasing x in the range of 0.35-0.47 caused the appearance of polycrystalline FCC phase in structure.Compared with the MoNbTaTiZr metallic coating,the coating containing nitrogen favored the high hard-ness around 13.7-32.4 GPa,accompanied by excellent tolerance both against elastic and plastic deforma-tion.Furthermore,such N-containing coatings yielded a low corrosion current density of about 10−8-10−7 A/cm^(2) and high electrochemical impedance of 10^(6)Ωcm^(2) in 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution,indicating the supe-rior corrosion resistance.The reason for the enhanced electrochemical behavior could be ascribed to the spontaneous formation of protective passive layers over the coating surface,which consisted of the domi-nated multi-elemental oxides in chemical stability.Particularly,noted that the(MoNbTaTiZr)_(0.83) N0.17 coat-ing displayed the highest hardness of 32.4±2.6 GPa and H/E ratio at 0.09,together with remarkable cor-rosion resistance,proposing the strongest capability for harsh-environmental applications required both good anti-wear and anti-corrosion performance.

文摘In cold regions,slope rocks are inevitably impacted by freeze-thaw,dry-wet cycles and their alternating actions,leading to strength weakening and pore degradation.In this study,the mechanical and microstructural properties of schist subjected to four conditions were investigated:freeze-thaw cycles in air(FTA),freeze-thaw cycles in water(FTW),dry-wet cycles(DW),and dry-wet-freeze-thaw cycles(DWFT).Uniaxial compressive strength(UCS),water absorption,ultrasonication,low-field nuclear magnetic resonance,and scanning electron microscopy analyses were conducted.The integrity attenuation characteristics of the longitudinal wave velocity,UCS,and elastic modulus were analyzed.The results showed that liquid water emerged as a critical factor in reducing the brittleness of schist.The attenuation function model accurately described the peak stress and static elastic modulus of schist in various media(R2>0.97).Different media affected the schist deterioration and half-life,with the FTW-immersed samples having a half-life of 28 cycles.Furthermore,the longitudinal wave velocity decreased as the number of cycles increased,with the FTW showing the most significant reduction and having the shortest half-life of 208 cycles.Moreover,the damage variables of compressive strength and elastic modulus increased with the number of cycles.After 40 cycles,the schist exposed to FTW exhibited the highest damage variables and saturated water content.

文摘Water level fluctuations in the reservoir deteriorate soils and rocks on the bank landslides by drying-wetting(D-W)cycles,which results in a significant decrease in mechanical properties.A comprehensive understanding of deterioration mechanism of sliding-zone soils is of great significance for interpreting the deformation behavior of landslides.However,quantitative investigation on the deterioration characteristics of soils considering the structural evolution under D-W cycles is still limited.Here,we carry out a series of laboratory tests to characterize the multi-scale deterioration of sliding-zone soils and reveal the mechanism of shear strength decay under D-W cycles.Firstly,we describe the micropores into five grades by scanning electron microscope and observe a critical change in porosity after the first three cycles.We categorize the mesoscale cracks into five classes using digital photography and observe a stepwise increase in crack area ratio.Secondly,we propose a shear strength decay model based on fractal theory which is verified by the results of consolidated undrained triaxial tests.Cohesion and friction angle of sliding-zone soils are found to show different decay patterns resulting from the staged evolution of structure.Then,structural deterioration processes including cementation destruction,pores expansion,aggregations decomposition,and clusters assembly are considered to occur to decay the shear strength differently.Finally,a three-stage deterioration mechanism associated with four structural deterioration processes is revealed,which helps to better interpret the intrinsic mechanism of shear strength decay.These findings provide the theoretical basis for the further accurate evaluation of reservoir landslides stability under water level fluctuations.

文摘Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) temperature has a significant impact on the service performance of powder metallurgy titanium alloys. In this study, a high-temperature titanium alloy, Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si, was prepared under different HIP temperatures (880–1000℃), and the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties were systematically investigated. The results demonstrated that the HIPed alloys were predominantly composed of more than 80 vol.% α phase and a small amount of β phase, and their phase compositions were basically unaffected by the HIP temperatures. Under the typical single-temperature-maintained HIP (STM-HIP) regime, the microstructure of alloy significantly coarsened as the HIP temperature increased, and the alloy strength exhibited an obvious linear negative correlation with the HIP temperature. On the basis of Hall–Petch relation, the prediction model of grain size was established, and the mathematical equation between HIP temperature and grain size (d=M(T_(HIP-N)^(-2))) was deduced. Furthermore, a possible evolution mechanism of microstructure was proposed, which could be divided into the decomposition of initial α′ martensite for as-received powder, formation of the globular α grains in prior particle boundaries (PPBs) region, and precipitation of the platelet α grains in non-PPBs region. For these alloys prepared by the dual-temperature-maintained HIP (DTM-HIP) regime, although their tensile properties were comparable to that of alloy prepared by STM-HIP regime with same high-temperature holding stage, higher proportion of globular α grains occurred due to more recrystallization nucleation during the low-temperature holding stage, which probably provided a solution for improving the dynamic service performance of HIPed alloys.

文摘Located in northern China,the Hetao Plain is an important agro-economic zone and population centre.The deterioration of local groundwater quality has had a serious impact on human health and economic development.Nowadays,the groundwater vulnerability assessment(GVA)has become an essential task to identify the current status and development trend of groundwater quality.In this study,the Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)and Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)models are integrated to realize the spatio-temporal prediction of regional groundwater vulnerability by introducing the Self-attention mechanism.The study firstly builds the CNN-LSTM modelwith self-attention(SA)mechanism and evaluates the prediction accuracy of the model for groundwater vulnerability compared to other common machine learning models such as Support Vector Machine(SVM),Random Forest(RF),and Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost).The results indicate that the CNNLSTM model outperforms thesemodels,demonstrating its significance in groundwater vulnerability assessment.It can be posited that the predictions indicate an increased risk of groundwater vulnerability in the study area over the coming years.This increase can be attributed to the synergistic impact of global climate anomalies and intensified local human activities.Moreover,the overall groundwater vulnerability risk in the entire region has increased,evident fromboth the notably high value and standard deviation.This suggests that the spatial variability of groundwater vulnerability in the area is expected to expand in the future due to the sustained progression of climate change and human activities.The model can be optimized for diverse applications across regional environmental assessment,pollution prediction,and risk statistics.This study holds particular significance for ecological protection and groundwater resource management.
